Hundreds protest against controversial plans to build 240 homes

More than 200 people protested against controversial plans to build 240 homes on greenbelt farmland in Wirral.

The proposed plans by Leverhulme Estate are one of eight planning applications put forward for more than 1,000 homes on green land across Wirral - although seven of the applications have already been rejected by Wirral Council.

The proposed homes in the latest application would be built on Greenhouse, also known as, Appleby’s Farm near Greasby. Leverhulme argue their applications will provide “neighbourhoods which are distinctively Wirral with a beautiful and bespoke character” and will meet Wirral’s housing need.
